Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Girdling reduced soil respiration within 1–2 months by about 54% relative to respiration on ungirdled control plots, and that decreases of up to 37% were detected within 5 days, which clearly show that the flux of current assimilates to roots is a key driver of soil resppiration.

Apparatus for the continuous, long-term monitoring of soil respiration rate in large numbers of samples

Contrasting effects of nitrogen availability on plant carbon supply to mycorrhizal fungi and saprotrophs - a hypothesis based on field observations in boreal forest.
TL;DR: It is hypothesize that low N supply and plant productivity, and hence low litter C supply to saprotrophs is associated with a high plant C supplyTo mycorrhizal fungi, while the reverse occurs under high N supply, and should mean that effects of N availability onC supply to these functional groups of microbes acts in opposing directions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Is growth of soil microorganisms in boreal forests limited by carbon or nitrogen availability
TL;DR: In this article, the authors applied sucrose from sugar cane, a C4 plant, to the organic mor-layer of a boreal Pinus sylvestris-Vaccinium vitis-idaea forest to study whether the biomass of soil microorganisms was limited by the availability of carbon or nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI
Carbon allocation between tree root growth and root respiration in boreal pine forest
TL;DR: It is suggested that 75% of the C allocated to roots is respired, while 25% is used for growth, and hence that root growth and turnover were grossly overestimated in the SWECON study.
